New York Mayor Urges US Government to Enforce ICC Warrant Against Netanyahu
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has stated that the city lacks the legal authority to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant issued for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. Mamdani called on the US federal government to enforce the ICC warrant, emphasizing that Netanyahu is not welcome in New York City. US President Donald Trump dismissed the possibility of Netanyahu's arrest during his expected visit for the UN General Assembly, while Israel's UN ambassador criticized Mamdani's remarks. The ICC issued the warrant in 2024 related to the conflict in Gaza.
